Today, George Allen received the endorsement of U.S. Senator Marco
Rubio (R-FL), who joined Allen on the campaign trail at Company Flowers,
a family-owned small business in Arlington, Virginia.

“Few
people have the leadership, vision and record of results of George
Allen,” said Marco Rubio. “I’m proud to support George Allen because
America needs his relentless commitment to holding government
accountable and empowering job-creators through our free enterprise
system. George Allen is essential to retiring Harry Reid as Senate
Majority Leader. We need George Allen to be the 51st vote in
the Senate to help repeal and replace Obamacare, fight the regulatory
assault on job creators, and hold the line on fiscal discipline in a
spendthrift Washington. The promise of the American Dream hinges on this
election, and I’m here to support Virginians who will stand up for our
country and vote for George Allen.”

Senator
Marco Rubio has established a record of fighting for fiscal reform in
Washington, standing against government bailouts, failed stimulus
funding and debt-driven spending sprees. Senator Rubio also supports a
Balanced Budget Amendment, which George Allen co-sponsored as Senator.

“I’m
honored to have Marco Rubio’s endorsement in this pivotal election,”
said George Allen. “Marco has quickly become a powerful, leading voice
for the conservative, common-sense principles and freedom that have made
America great. We need unity of purpose to win in November, welcoming
Republicans, Independents and Democrats to our cause for a better future
of freedom and opportunity for all. Marco’s leadership helps build our
growing team of grassroot supporters who envision a better future based
on individual liberty, personal responsibility and free enterprise that
empowers every person to reach their American Dream.”

Company
Flowers was started by owners John and Marnie Nicholson in 1991. The
business, started in a friend’s basement and has become a 20-year
centerpiece of the community.
